David,
The Silicon Valley Bicycle Exchange built a number of freestanding bike racks from wood. They're not much different than the average rack you see by a school, but are two-sided so can hold about 16 bikes or so if you alternate front and rear wheels. Obviously you could determine the length.
If you're interested in learning more, I can snap some pics next time I'm down there, and measure the lumber used.
Cheers, A

Hey all,
I’m just looking to get some inspiration from the hive-mind of two-wheeled do-gooders.
I need to build some free-standing bike storage for our bike program. I have a large open space for storage, and am looking to fit more bikes in the space.
Please share photos and designs for bike racks that…
Stand on their own, without support or attachment to walls
Hold 10 or more bikes each
Bonus points for frugality
Thanks in advance everyone,
David
